this is great news, hopefully, give the theories posted around here recently, the famous south stand might get behind the team for a change

Cheers, glad you like it!

The Southstand is lagging behind most Team Players atm. But that might change when Greg Eastwood comes!

Did anyone see his top on the field on Friday BTW?

It was huge and several kids had to pull it open!

MAKING IT EASY EASY !!!!

These are the three Leeds losses to Wakefield in the SL Reg Rds:

03-Mar-00..... SL 5-01..... Leeds 18..... Wakefield 22..... Steve Ganson..... 13,842
28-Mar-05..... SL 10-08..... Leeds 28..... Wakefield 44..... Ian Smith..... 18,257
20-Jul-07..... SL 12-21..... Leeds 16.....Wakefield 23..... Richard Silverwood..... 16,654

Fortunately since that shock Headingley loss (thanks to Karl Pratt), Ganson has also stood in these:

04-Jun-00..... SL 5-13..... Wakefield 24..... Leeds 30.....Steve Ganson..... 6,274
23-Apr-04..... SL 9-08..... Wakefield 12..... Leeds 36..... Steve Ganson..... 7,680
01-Aug-04..... SL 9-21..... Leeds 46..... Wakefield 28..... Steve Ganson..... 15,629
14-Sep-07..... SL 12-27..... Leeds 46..... Wakefield 4..... Steve Ganson..... 19,776
05-Sep-08..... SL 13-27..... Wakefield 12..... Leeds 30..... Steve Ganson..... 6,448

anyone else remember what Graham Murray said about him when he signed?

Was it "Who's this Pratt?"

Given the way both teams performed last week id be surprised if theres more than 6 points seperating them at full time

I reckon this will be close. Incidentally, having seen the highlights now, Wakey's first try last week may have owed something to some slightly slack defending, but it was very nicely worked. The Leeds defence will need to be on the ball, and shipping one try away at Wigan suggests they didn't defend too badly either. Rhinos by 8 I think.

I agree it could be a tight game but there could have been a lot more points scored by either team. I think 4 or 5 tries were dissalowed altogether. It was also a high intensity game with Wigan making 326 tackles and Wakefield making 341 tackles. Compare this to the relatively easy game at Headingley where Leeds made 285 tackles and Celtic only 258 and you could say we are going in under done.
